Read the display exactly

Recorded display variants in this source group: E01, E02. Keep capitalization, spaces, and any slash or suffix in your notes. These are documented variants within this group, not proof that every version appears on every model.

Product scope: any. When it appears: Consult the owner manual for the display context and control-panel generation.

Additional caution: A separate Bosch marketing page inconsistently describes E02 as a control board fault; prioritize actual model manual.

Safe checks before service

  • Stop the dryer if it is unusually hot, smells burnt, or shows a serious blockage warning.
  • Clean the lint screen and check visible, reachable exhaust duct openings for obvious obstruction.
  • Have a qualified dryer-vent professional clean inaccessible ductwork; do not restart a dangerously overheating dryer.

Do only user-facing checks allowed by your owner manual. Do not bypass locks, open electrical compartments, work on gas lines, or cut into the refrigerant system.
